    Does anyone know 100% for sure what fender skirts fit the 1949 Chevy Fleetline. Get conflicting stories. Bought a pair at swap meet and said 1949 Chevy Fleetline but BINGO do not fit. So does the normal 2 door 4 door 1949 skirts fit the 4 door Fleetline ?

    49-50 Chevy cars are the same, regardless of model and 51-52 are the same. In short you have the 51-52 skirts. Here's a link for fender skirts: http://fenderskirtdepot.com/

    49-50 have a sight taper towards the rear, 51-52 are more square.

    Easy to tell apart. Set them on top of one another. If they are the same side to side, then 51/2 if there's a taper, then they're 49/50

    Here's one off my '49, laying on the front seat. I can get you a better pic if you need.
